[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Roadtrp</i> <br /><br />The main thing I've noticed on current Amtrak passenger trains is that they seem to configure the consist to minimize coach passenger traffic through a sleeper. In other words, they generally try to make sure that most coach passengers can get to the lounge car or the dining car without going through sleeper cars. This usually means that sleepers are either at the head or the end of the train. Observation cars are no more; they have been replaced by the lounge cars. <br /> <br />[:)] <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />I have to agree with roadtrp. What I have seen here is the same. The crew sleeper (called Transition Sleeper) is ahead of the passenger sleepers. Should their be private owned railroad cars they are at the end of the train. <br />
